Illustrator uses tablet pressure for paint variations. It is not as
sophisticated as Painter or Photoshop's use of the tablet. Anyway i
have a friend who draws for his work with Illustrator. His style is
close to the "ligne claire" from Hergé. No pencil texture or paper
texture here. I believe that Illustrator is the best tool for this
style of drawing... for some people.

Illustrator is a vector graphics program while Painter is an image
editing program. they are about as far apart in the art creation
world as it is possible to get. vector graphics means you are
dealing with only with shapes. images are a bunch of pixels.
Illustrator takes no advantage at all of a tablet over a mouse,
while Painter's existence is justified by using it with pressure
sensitive tablets. i have 3 or 4 versions of each. for ordinary
photographic image manipulation that most people do here, Painter
is well behind what Photoshop can do, while painterly manipulation
is what Painter is all about and Photoshop is just adequate.

wouldn't think so.
